Trusted Code trusted code : Code that is loaded by the primordial class loader, irrespective of whether it constitutes the Java API or not. In this text, this meaning is extended to include code that is obtained from a known entity and given permissions that untrusted code lacks. By this definition, untrusted and trusted code can coexist in the namespace of a single class loader (not necessarily the primordial class loader). In such cases, the security policy must make this distinction clear by assigning appropriate privileges to trusted code, while denying the same from untrusted code.

Untusted untusted code : Code of unknown origin that can potentially cause some harm when executed. Untrusted code may not always be malicious but this is usually hard to determine automatically. Consequently, untrusted code should be run in a sandboxed environment.
